Baggio

We could get him on loan like Liverpool have done with Mascherano. Whoever owns tevez contract will want at least £15 million for him.

Charlton 2 West Ham 0 Jerome Thomas

Liverpool 2 Sheff Utd 0 Another Fowler penalty.

Charlton 1 West Ham 0 DARREN AMBROSE! Why did we let him go?

Liverpool 1 Sheff Utd 0 Fowler (penalty)

Boro 1 Reading 0 Viduka

Have a good one

Bent and Luke Young back in the side. No Boa Morte, Upson or Neill for West Ham.

Fulham didn't deserve to lose that and Radzinski missed an open goal with a header. I thought Rooney was shite today too.

I can't see Souness managing anywhere again, didn't he say Newcastle would be his last when he took the job?

2-1 Ronaldo

Fulham 1 Man Utd 1 - 25 minutes to go. Later today Barclays Premiership Charlton v West Ham, 15:00 Liverpool v Sheff Utd, 15:00 Middlesbrough v Reading, 15:00 Watford v Everton, 17:15 Also Sunderland v Derby.

Lucky goal tbh, he totally miss hit it.

That didn't happen, did it?

Like a lot of strikers, they work in pairs. Bellamy was and is underrated as a finisher, and IMO a few spectacular goals have contributed to Martins being overrated as a finisher. They are different sorts of players, but Bellamy gives the team more, consistently, and makes things happen. I'm surprised at you mate, I thought you would be one of the ones who have a better understanding of the game than simply to look at a goalscoring stat to show a players worth ..... Bellamy makes things happen for others. When Owen returns, we will see how well Martins does this. I'm not knocking him either before some of the plebs will suggest just because its my comment, like gram for instance. I actually think that Craig Bellamy would have been a brilliant partner for Owen, and still would be, and possibly Martins too for that matter. I think Martins is being "ovverated" as a finisher due to his almost 1 in 2 goal ratio in his first season in the premiership at 21/22 years of age and a constantly changing team that has on occasion lacked worthwhile attacking build up play. Martins also has a good few assists this season so its not as if scoring is all he does. Yeah but has he ever scored in the Nou Camp?

you aren't aware that a previous Newcastle chairman decided to sell Gazza, Beardsley and Waddle are you Isn't it the manager that buys and sells players? From Sir Bobby's book. A small part of Chapter 20. Undermined. Here's another part from an early chapter about Bowyer..

We've used all our subs.

Thank fuck for that. Excellent ball from Duff and a great finish by Oba.

People like me are slagging him off because he is hardly producing anything useful himself. Saying he would make a big difference in this game is highly hypothetical. He's the only midfielder we've got that can actually pass a ball and has been our best player in europe so far this season.

People slag Emre off but it's games like this we see how important he is to the side. Absolutely fuck all going through the middle of the park.

White numbers?

Played off the park by a bunch of part timers.

Alkmaar have never lost at home in Europe. Not sure how many games they've played like.

7-0 Martins x2 Luque Milner Dyer Bramble Solano (pen)

Anyone got a 360 Wireless Adaptor to connect to live? Thinking of getting one but I wondered if anyone has had connection problems.
